here i go,
cutting these ties that bind me to the negatives.

here i go,
snipping at these marionette strings.

i am no longer a puppet to my depression.

i won't let it sink in it's claws
and shake me like a  porcelain doll,
bits of my smile splintering off,
shards of broken promises.

i am breaking away from the past,
standing on m own two feet
and taking the first shaky steps
towards the future
like a newborn giraffe.

you have watched me dance,
attached to these strings
for too long.

now watch me break away
